• Getting the data center of VirtualMachine with Get-View information

  Hello

  Y at - it a faster way to get the name of data using Get-View and the viewtype VirtualMachine Center.

  I found the following:

  Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -filter @{ "name" = "mtl1fsit02" } | Select-Object -Property Name, 
  @{ Label = "GuestOSName"; Expression = { $_.summary.guest.guestfullname } }, 
  @{ Label = "Datacenter"; Expression = { (Get-view (Get-View (Get-view $_.parent).parent).Parent).name } }
  

  Thank you guys

  I think that the property calculated for the data center does not work in all situations.

  It assumes that your virtual machines are 3 levels down from the data center, which is not always the case.

  I personally use a loop, passing up through the parents, until he finds an object data center.

  something like that

  @{N = 'Center'; E = {}

  $parentObj = get-view $_. Parent

  While ($parentObj - isnot [VMware.Vim.Datacenter]({))

  $parentObj = get-view $parentObj.Parent

  }

  $parentObj.Name

  }

• Deliver the addition of new set of switches stacked as an extension to the network in another data center building

  Hello

  I was wondering if someone can help me, I am a humble sysadmin with no real network admin training.

  I have the following Setup to work in a rack in our data center.

  2 x Dell Sonicwall NSA2400
  2 x stacked switches Dell Powerconnect N5524

  A Sonicwall is connected to each switch (active-passive)

  Every Dell server has 2 x nics in servile failover mode, one of each network card connected to each switch

  This is done to allow a full redundancy for network, cable, switches and Firewall interface cards. It works well.

  The above mentioned rack is now full and we ordered a new rack that is in a different datacenter of construction on the same site. We decided to buy another set of stacked switches and _extend_ (no battery) these via optical SPF on the rack on the other.

  The idea is that we still have the switch fault tolerance but link to two grids through 10 GB. The new switches are 2 x Dell Powerconnect N2048 and have been implemented stacked with any connected devices.

  I have implemented SPF ports on both switches to be a junction ports and connected the two sets of switches, unfortunately our site went offline, our alert went ballistic and no servers could not talk to each other!

  Quickly, I unplugged the new switches and after a worrisome 10 alerts deleted seconds and the site is back online.

  I don't know why this has happened and reflected on the STP parameters that my googleing seem well. I don't know I'm missing something basic.

  I'll post a framework and a diagram in a follow-up post

  Which is no doubt tree covering the shot weight. It is a good idea to assign lower priority to the main switch. Generally, your root switch will be the one that plugs into the firewall. Definition of priority on the main switch to 4096, it will make the root switch. So as you work your way through different layers of the network, increase the priority. Access layer switches can be left by default.

  I would also check the physical connections for loops. In situations where you have multiple connections switch, make sure that these ports are configured in a SHIFT.

  Keep us informed.

• [OEM CC 12r4] Multi data center facility

  Hi all

  I am designing a new Enterprise Manager Cloud Control (r4) environment. We want (in the Center) manage about 40 groups CARS with global data protection. Approximately 30 clusters are located in Europe (spread over 2 data centers), 15 United States and 5 in Asia. Currently, we only use OEM for the administration database and monitoring (patch management, backup, etc.). We will not use the LCM pack deployment and automation still. I have a few questions:

  1. Is it possible to manage all clusters in all parts of a central OEM environment? Or with a single panel of glass with decentralized OEM case?
  2. Is it possible to configure the agent on a cluster of CARS to have a primary and a secondary OEM?
  3. Is there information available of the amount of traffic that will be generated for alerts and performance indicators? Why I ask this question is because two data centers are within a radius of 10 miles and we want to know what the charge will be between our data centers.

  Kind regards

  Bart

  Hi Bart,.

  I had quite similar requirements for a comprehensive implementation of Enterprise Manager. It is not a problem to manage targets in different parts of a central Enterprise Manager. Using servers in decentralized with a repository management central is not a good idea, because latency between the database server and the application should not be more than 1 m, application servers and the database must be in the same data center.

  You cannot configure Oracle Agents to work with two different OEM. Theoretically, you could have two agents Installations on a single server, using two directories of different base Agent and two different ports that are configured for two different SGD servers. But this cause configuration would increase consumption of resources for the follow-up on the server and could have strange side effects. For example, some of the events for the databases are collected directly from database (metric push) views and the Agent Oracle insert the thresholds required for monitoring directly in the database. If the two OEMS have different threshold settings, an OEM could view events without thresholds or unable to get events, even if the thresholds are set for the metric. It is that Agent did the last update for the thresholds in the database.

  There is no generic answer for traffic between the Agent and the management server. The amount of data depends on your settings. You can turn off the metric collections or increase the interval between two collections to reduce traffic.

  I hope my answer will help a little to find the right design for you Enterprise Manager environment.

  Kind regards

• Need to create a report across data center that summarizes each cluster

  I created a few reports of various kinds, layers to multiple views and used filters for will only display me specific data.  However, I don't find a way to summarize or failure, a report by a resource of the child.

  To be precise, I'm looking to get information about the data at the data center or vCenter level stores, grouped by cluster.  Currently, I can obviously pull 53 different reports and getting these data on a per-cluster basis, but I want to be able to do is have a summary of each cluster in a single report.  Currently, the report is perfectly functional vcenter down to a host, but it displays each individual data store and the summary only I can give is all grouped together, and is not an indication that data warehouses are in clusters.

  Is there a way to do this?

  I would like that the report looks simply:

  Data Center

  Group 1

  Data warehouses

  Summary

  Group 2

  Data warehouses

  Summary

  and so on...

  I am currently on vROps 6.1.

  You can do things with the summary views and the bubble to the top a few statistics by using Supermetrics in some cases, but the possibilities for nesting are today a bit limited in terms of nesting of data visually in views. Of data are what kind of data from the warehouses you trying to show?

• Get data center or resource pool by using script vRO

  I am trying to build a service plan, but don't want the user to have to enter the information pool or a folder of resources.

  How to retrieve the objects as a data center pool or resource using the vRO scripting language?

  I'm trying to use var myDatacenters = VcPlugin.getAllDatacenters (); to retrieve a list of data centers to go, but I'm back zero results.

  Are there tricks to do this?  Should I connect to vCenter?  VCenter may not communicate with vRO?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  I solved this by running a configuration in vRO workflow that adds an instance of vCenter vRO.

• Shortcut to achieve VCDX virtualization in the data center.

  Friends,

  I would like to know to achieve VCDX can choose path below to avoid to submit the design VCDX defense.

  VCP5-VTC > VCAP5DCA > VCAP-CID > VCDX - data center virtualization.

  Who currently hold VCP5-VTC & VCP Cloud. VCAP5DCA inprogress... hope it will pass soon

  Any information will be greatly appreciated.

  Please notify.

  Thank you

  Knockaert

  Yes - actually if you want the VCDX Cloud you have to earn the VCAP-CIA and certification VCAP-CID before sit you for the VCDX defense according to the chart here - (VCDX-cloud) VMware Certified Design Expert-cloud.

  The other option is to pursue and get VCDX-VTC and when you pass the VCAP-CID cert, you will get the Cloud VCDX certification.

• Orchestrator 5.1 REPORT-all the virtual machines in the data center and create a CSV file

  Hello

  What I basically want to do is create a report CSV of all virtual machines in the data center with various information (VMname, domain name FULL, IPaddress, status, data warehouses, tools etc...).  The export list in the client feature is insufficient (especially for any KPI report).

  Problem: (workflow is still under construction so real email send does not not and need to clean the code)

  I am stuck at the part of the creation of a table that can be parsed correctly in the CSV file.  2 ways I've tried will produce a report of single object or combine all of the table into a single string (where I am now).  I think the main problem I have is that I have to create a 2D within my service to push toward the final table that is written to the CSV format.  Basically, I do not understand how to push my variables in a loop of a table.

  Any help or assistance?

  Thank you

  BOOM!

  Added some comments, removed the hardcoded in the csv temp file, deleted path the hardcoded port 25 for SMTP - mail settings should come from the configuration of the MAIL plug-in. And fixed / confirmed that the workflow now includes the attachment for e-mail and ends with success!

• Conversion virtual cluster SQL 2000 to 2 knots to a data center different

  Hello

  I want to use VMware converter to migrate the virtual SQL 2000 cluster of 2 nodes existing to a different data center.

  Existing cluster is on the same ESX Server. A 2-disc shared: quorum disks and data.

  After that, I'll send to synchronize the data in logs.

  can anyone provide details, best practices, concerns on how to do it?

  If this is the only SQL server, I just set up a new SQL to the DR server and then manually import all the information from the database. P2V a server cluster with player quorum and etc is a delicate bif.

• find children of a given data center

  Hi all

  Another Newbie question...

  I would like to collect total mV, the total of the hosts, and total of clusters in a data

  When connecting to a vcenter Server data center. I know I can get registration.

  total count of vms using:

  $vm_view = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type = > 'VirtualMachine');

  And even the total Datacenters, Hosts, etc... using the same idea.

  This tells me how (or other view_type) large vms system but not any information on

  What data center the vm resides in the breast. Feedback from here can be cumbersome?

  I think the way to do it is via the hostFolder and or the vmFolder MOR

  that are present in the "data center"-> vmFolder or "data center"-> hostFolder

  level.

  It would be the best place to start with this? Or would have to go elsewhere in

  the hierarchy is best? ClusterComputeResource? ResourcePool?

  -kevin

  Define a named argument called "begin_entity" in your find_entity_views call.

  $vm_view = Vim::find_entity_views( view_type => 'VirtualMachine', begin_entity => $datacenter_moref);
  

  Of course, you will need to use find_entity_view to get a moref for the datacenter (or another object in the inventory) to use for your starting point in your find_entity_views.
